A word from Maria, the 'Zombie Baby' costume creator:

My son, Elijah seraphiel, 2yrs old, is wearing the costume, i've researched the ideas online on how to do fake wounds. I use tissue paper (1 ply) and Elmers glue for the skin wound i add some make up to make it realistic. for the fake blood the recipes are corn syrup, red food coloring, cornstarch, and cocoa sweetend powder. the clothes he is wearing are his own clothes, it is torned, with fake blood and is painted with red, black and green we also soak the clothes in coffee to make an old clothe effect. for the shoes same colors and tricks are been used. My son won the best costume for babies yesterday (oct 31 2012).
